Abstract

A tool has a body having a blunt end and an adhesive end. The adhesive end has a fastener and an adhesive element. The fastener protrudes from the adhesive end of the body. The adhesive element is made of resin and fastened by the fastener. The paillettes can be adhered more easily and rapidly by the adhesive element than by a user's hand. Thus, using the tool of the present invention to make the illustrated card is convenient for the users.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1. A tool comprising a body having
 a blunt end; and 
 an adhesive end having
 a fastener protruding from the adhesive end of the body; and 
 an adhesive element being made of resin and fastened by the fastener, 
 
 wherein the fastener of the adhesive end has
 an inner space; 
 an enlarged end mounted on the adhesive end of the body; 
 a narrow end having a through hole defined through the narrow end and communicating with the inner space of the fastener; and 
 two halves combined detachably to each other, wherein one of the halves is formed integrally on the adhesive end of the body and has
 an inner surface having a protrusion protruding from the inner surface; and 
 two side edges, each side edge having a first detent formed in the edge; and 
 
 the other half has
 an inner surface having a hollow protrusion protruding from the inner surface having a mounting hole formed in the hollow protrusion and corresponding to the protrusion of the one of the halves to receive the protrusion to combine the halves securely; and 
 two opposite side edges, each side edge having a second detent formed on the side edge and pressed mounted in one of the first detents to fasten the two halves firmly; and 
 
 
 the adhesive element is mounted in the inner space of the fastener, partially protrudes from the through hole of the narrow end of the fastener and has
 a cylindrical segment mounted in the inner space of the fastener and having
 a proximal end; and 
 a distal end; 
 
 a fastening ring formed integrally from the proximal end of the cylindrical segment and having a fastening hole mounted around the protrusion of the one of the halves to fasten the adhesive element to the fastener; and 
 a sphere protrusion protruding from the distal end of the cylindrical segment and mounted out of the through hole of the fastener. 
 
 
   
   
     2. The tool as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the adhesive element is made of thermoplastic resin. 
   
   
     3. The tool as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the adhesive element is made of silicone.
